*”We are going to the moon, that is not very far. Man has so much farther
to go within himself”.*
*-Anais Nin*

The moon means something to everyone; each human has an idea of it, and the
lore attached to this close astral body connects us to each other and to
our own subconscious. *Mooning,Scratch* is a project to memorize and
reflect on the moons of the solar system and the stories attached to to
their names. For two years, I worked on these scratchboard drawings of the
named moons in our neighborhood. The drawings are icons of the learning I
have done. The larger project is the remembering of knowledge I found
while researching the images and myths associated with the moons. In this
light, *Mooning* casts a light on the duality of knowing/unknowing, and the
space in-between myth and reality.

Title: “Nevermore”

HALCYON
There is a space only for myself in the deepest part of my mind where my hidden memories and sensitive emotions are located.
It is a secret place that will not be open to everyone. The goal of my photography is to reveal it to the audience.
The name Halcyon is inspired by the song of a Japan screamo band Heaven in Her Arms. It is also the way that I knew this name.
Halcyon means peaceful and happy.
But there is a totally different scene in my mind.
It evokes me the memory of my trip to Fuzhou when I experienced the strongest storm of the year.
All I felt were whirring of the wind, shrill sound of the ocean wave and a wrathful force from the darkness of the farthest part of the ocean.
Silent, desolated, dark and chaotic are all characteristics of Halcyon.
I represent the darkness that has been following me as my shadow for years.
In this series, I applied different symbolic imageries in the creation to express what is substantial in my unconscious mind.

“I work with experimental photography since 1975 and explore the nature of photography.
The visible, the pictorial and the substantial as pure form.
Kazimir Malevich: ” black square on a white background ” inspired me.
I am exploring the non material (intangible) form as an analogy to the idea of spacelessness”
